| Windows 7 Ultimate x64 | Re: Please help! BSOD on Vista x64 install I had problems like that during beta, removing a graphics card sorted it. As a general rule when this sort of thing happens, reset your bios and remove any hardware from the system that is not needed for the install. |

| Vista ultimate 64 bit SP2 | Re: Please help! BSOD on Vista x64 install are you overclocking? if so, go back to default settings. also check voltages in bios to see if your power supply is working correctly. also test the memory to see if it might be bad |

| Windows Vista 32-bit | Re: Please help! BSOD on Vista x64 install I am not overclocking, and I ran a memory test which came up with no problems. I looked at my voltages, but I must admit, I really don't know what they are supposed to be. How do I find out what they are supposed to be? If you have any other ideas that might help please let me know. Thanks. |

| Vista ultimate 64 bit SP2 | Re: Please help! BSOD on Vista x64 install well the 12 volt rail should be around 12 and the 3.3 should be around 3.3 and so forth. if they are below those levels there is good chance the power supply is bad |

| Windows Vista 32-bit | Re: Please help! BSOD on Vista x64 install All voltages seem to be correct. My power supply is 600W so don't think it's the problem. I did ,however, just notice something that I should have a while ago. I have 2 x 2gb Mushkin DDR2, but windows only sees 2gb. Can you tell me what might cause that? |

| Windows Vista 32-bit | Re: Please help! BSOD on Vista x64 install Scratch what I said about the memory, it's working. I am still stuck on the install though. Nothing seems to work. Just the same blue screen and the same stop message. Any ideas? |
